Reviews

"While the book is aimed at undergraduates, [it] reads like a thoughtful primer on doing scholarly writing and, even more importantly, on forming a professional identity as a publishing scholar... Harris provides the 'terms of art,' as it were, for writers to achieve that self-awareness." -Howard Tinberg, CCC "[O]ne of the reasons why I find the book so teachable and important is that it invites us to think more deeply than we might otherwise about what we want our writing to do and how we intend to make that happen." -Laura Micciche, CCC "Writing this essay in response to Rewriting has given me a better sense of the moves I, myself, make... I can think of no higher praise." -Donna Qualley, Reader, special issue on Rewriting
